lyrics
It’s hard to remember those days
Looking back now is a blur
Those faces all blend together
And I know my thoughts have changed
I started looking at the sky
Those stars that shine so brightly have opened up my eyes
Even if my old ghosts start to haunt
I can become anyone I want
This merry-go-round routine just isn’t me
Back then when I wasn’t afraid and
I wasn’t in so much pain
There was no fear of putting myself back together
But now I can’t look anymore
You see, my mirror is cracked
Back then I had love to spare, now it’s the thing I lack
It’s been weighing down like an anchor
All the shame and terror, building up like a wall
All the pain that I’ve dealt
And the love that I’ve felt I’m so much better than it all
Looking back now is a blur
Those faces all blend together
And I know my thoughts have changed
I started looking at the sky
Those stars that shine so brightly have opened up my eyes
Even if my old ghosts start to haunt
I can become anyone I want
This merry-go-round routine just isn’t me
Back then when I wasn’t afraid and
I wasn’t in so much pain
There was no fear of putting myself back together
But now I can’t look anymore
You see, my mirror is cracked
Back then I had love to spare, now it’s the thing I lack
It’s been weighing down like an anchor
All the shame and terror, building up like a wall
All the pain that I’ve dealt
And the love that I’ve felt I’m so much better than it all
